On September 15, the federal court, which had been besieged by the public because of Lin Feng's case, reopened to hear Joseph's case. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Joseph, the head of the Tiger Cavalry Regiment of the Third Army of the Central Army, was martyred in the Battle of Frost on July 5, 014 in the Union Calendar. However, he was charged with disobeying military orders.

Now, two months later, the Judge Advocate General's Office has publicly charged the general in federal court.

In the Lin Feng case, the Judge Advocate General's Office was forced to transfer the trial power from the military court to the federal court under the pressure of public opinion. Today, they are acting in this way with ulterior motives.

When Master Marcus sent his son out of the door, he patted Galen on the shoulder: "Son, do your best in this matter, but don't force it. ”

Galen nodded silently, his eyes welling with tears.

Can't force it? Oh, this move of the military department is undoubtedly to ruin General Joseph's reputation, the general died for me, for the Union, do you want him to bear this trumped-up charge after his death?

You can deceive me when I am young and insult my majesty. Only do not let down, the martyr's brave loyalty!

Galen clenched his iron fist and walked into the federal courthouse. He picked up the general's children, who had fallen to the ground crying, and bowed deeply to the adult's widow, the woman who had always been stubborn and unyielding in the face of all kinds of vicious words and groundless accusations from high-ranking military officials.

Then Galen walked to the empty dock and solemnly held up the epaulettes that had been soaked in the blood of General Joseph. The small piece of metal seemed to weigh ten thousand pounds, and his shoulders trembled.

He held it tightly, allowing the sharp edges to pierce his palm. Then he slammed his fist on the table, startling the presiding judge and the jury members who were still pretending to talk about the verdict that had been prepared, and they all cast terrified and frightened eyes.

"General, this is the awe and respect you deserve." Galen whispered into his palm, and looked up again, his gaze only in absolute.

"It's me. Galen, the supreme commander of the Dreadnought Vanguard Legion, was in danger, and with the title of General of Debon, and with the prestige of his father, Marcus, who had been the Generalissimo of the Empire, and had the kindness of appreciating Joseph, he forced the general to disobey the order to save me from danger. ”

"It's me. It was my Galen who led the army and was incapable of resisting the enemy, and it was I who was afraid of death on the battlefield and asked for help. The responsibility for the general's guilt lies entirely with me. General Joseph was martyred, and I, Galen, survived. ”

"Today, I, Gironde, have come to confess my sins and clear the general's wrongs."

The presiding judge had a horrified expression on his face, and his hands, hidden under the table, had quietly replaced the other verdict that had been prepared.

On the morning of the 15th, the federal court announced the results of the trial:

General Joseph disobeyed military orders, but for a reason. He died for the country and strengthened the prestige of our army. Therefore, the merits and demerits were offset by the fact that he enjoyed a federal pension with the rank of former major general and was buried in the martyrs' cemetery.

Galen, the commander of the dreadnought vanguard corps, was timid on the battlefield and humiliated the prestige of the army. The military rank and the conjunct position were removed on the same day, and the honorary title of general and the power of Demacia were conferred on His Majesty. -- Federal Court, September 15, 014, final judgment.

Galen only sneered at the result.

In the Battle of Frost, each country sent 30,000 troops. The Noxians did their best to provoke, and the Federation still cowered as it had done in previous years.

When war was inevitable, the two commanders still kept the main force of the army from holding out. On the battlefield, I was the only fearless pioneer who fought bloodily.

Galen was not stupid, and the intention of the military department to use the enemy's hand to consume the only troops in his hands was clearly revealed. Knowing that it was a trap, in order to defend the power of the federal army, he had to sacrifice himself and his sons.

The Battle of Frost was won in the end, but who cares how it was won?

The Dreadnought Vanguard Regiment was almost wiped out; General Joseph's Tiger Regiment is no longer numbered, and he is in danger of being slandered after his death; Lin Feng, who single-handedly reversed the tide of the battle, was imprisoned.

In addition, the ten elite cavalry regiments that "rushed to the front line" after the start of the war did not set foot on the front line in the end, but were reorganized into border guards.

Those ten cavalry regiments are the most reliable and only reserve supplement for the dreadnought vanguard, what is the plan of the military department?

Even if he doesn't stand up today, he, Galen, is just a bare-bones commander.

Ridiculous, ridiculous.

Galen walked through the streets in silence, the news spreading faster than his steps.

The eyes of the passers-by around him looked at him from admiration and worship to indifference and sarcasm.

When I got home, my father was still waiting at the door.

Marcus opened his mouth to ask, but the answer was already in his mind. He just patted his son on the shoulder again: "Okay, no matter what you do, Daddy is proud of you." ”

Galen looked at his father's distant back, and once again wet his eyes with tears.

He remembered that when he first woke up, he was obsessed with magic and neglected the grinding of his body. His father took him to the mountains, but he couldn't walk halfway through.

At this time, the father would tie a long rope to the two of them. As soon as he looked up and saw the majestic figure in front of him, and realized that he was climbing with his father, he had strength again.

At that time, Galen often imagined himself and his father fighting side by side when he grew up, and once thought that their father and son would become a legend in the military history of Germany. He didn't realize that in fact, the fate of himself and his father had already been foreshadowed at that time.

The world, like the mountain, is not only one.

Every time his father was the first to reach the top, he would stand on it and watch him all the time, and at first Galen always thought that his father was just cheering him on. A long time later, when he also reached the first peak of his life, he suddenly remembered his father's eyes at that time - there was loneliness and sadness in hope that could not be hidden.

He finally understood that every time he was about to reach the top of the mountain, his father was walking to the other side of the mountain. Every time the force from the rope pulled him up, his father took the next step at the same time.

In the end, they never saw the scenery from the top of the mountain together.

The Crowned Guard family is too powerful, and every person at the helm influences not only the family but also the entire Federation in the direction of progress. How can this not be feared?

When Galen was given the title of general and took control of the dreadnought vanguard, his father voluntarily resigned from an important position in the military department. He was also helpless, but his steps were still firm, and he was determined to shoulder the responsibility of the future of the entire family.

But today, he has to hand it back to his elderly father. Although I have never regretted it, I will always feel ashamed in my heart.

On the 16th, Gavin III issued an order: to revoke Galen's title of "Great General", and "The Power of Demacia" was given the title of hero to the War College, and the matter will be discussed later.

Later, His Majesty issued an order to the War Department: Marcus, the Commissioner of Inspection, had the rank of duke, and was indeed condescending, and was promoted to the rank of Commander of the Royal Navy, with the rank of Admiral.

The military department did not make any objection to this.

As early as the unfavorable situation on the front line at the beginning of the Frost War, His Majesty asked Marcas, who was idle at home, to return to the military headquarters, and they guessed the situation today.

Knock down a Galen and help him up, which is considered a compromise between the military and the royal family.

Importantly, the Royal Navy was inherently a staunch royalist. Without Galen, the Dreadnought Vanguard would have lost the only influence the royal family had in the Union Army.
